Customer Reviews

don't buy it.
just got it today. didn't work at all! i had to hold it funny just to get it to charge, and trying to get it to open in itunes is a lost cause.

You may not get what you think
I ordered one of these cables which was described as being made by Apple, (indeed the photo is of a genuine Apple, iPod cable). When it came it was not a genuine Apple cable. I kept it because it works just as well as an Apple cable, but should have been described as such. I note however that even though I came back to this page by clicking on the order I made from my profile that it is now a different seller (was Zoodex when I ordered).

It is also worth noting to those new to iPods, that it is not worth buying if you want this cable to use with a second computer (say an office one) as unlike any other MP3 player the iPod will only work with one computer at a time. When I got this cable and connect my iPod Nano to my office PC, it told me it could not sync with this computer, unless I opted to erase its contents and start again! So really only worth buying if you have lost or broken the cable that came with your iPod.

Reasonable effort
Not a genuine Apple cable (although they've done their best to imitate Apple packaging!), but a fraction of the price. You get what you pay for. It works OK with my 2G iPod Touch, but only if plugged into a USB port directly on the computer. It doesn't work with the expansion USB ports on my monitor, for example.

I wouldn't rely on this for my main data transfer / sync cable - all I need it for is to charge my iPod while I'm at work, and it seems to do this just fine.
